    Everybody’s got a gimmick. Blogging Pro has themes organized by release date with thumbnail previews. How to Blog has over 170 themes organized by title. And, Shadow has themes organized by title with “a huge list of themes in use on site.”

    If you notice one thing in common about those three lists, it’s that they all have something to bring to the table. If you want thumbnail previews, go to Blogging Pro’s list. If you want possibly the largest and most comprehensive WordPress themes list, go to How to Blog’s list. And, if you want to see live demos, go to Shadow’s list. Well, it’s about time our own list brought something to the table. I present to you the new Codex Theme List, now organized by column count.

    Please keep in mind that we are all volunteers here. Personally, I do my best to keep the Codex list up to date, but I do miss some themes. The Codex is a community effort. If your theme is not listed on the Codex list, you can always add it yourself. The same goes for making URL changes (if your site moves, for example). You can add your theme to the other lists by notifying their authors.

    I end up at or near the top of Google searches all the time for stuff I’ve recently blogged about. The search refers often surprise the heck out of me!

    Lol, same here. We WordPressers are a popular bunch.

    The more the merrier, as Macmanx said, each site offers something different and a different way to grab the themes, but most importanlty they’re all resources for themes. So the codex goes down, and you don’t know where to grab your themes from – hello to other sites that do an equally great job.

    It would be great if folks would really just add new themes to the Codex page instead of maintaining seperate lists and adding to those lists.

    Why did you remove your comment NM? Because it was directly opposite to Carthik’s?

    We should all feel comfortable with saying how we truly feel ??

    I would love it if everyone contributed to the Codex list as well as keeping their own lists, but I think it is essential to keep the other lists. As stated before, each list brings their own pros and cons to the table, and provides an alternative source to get themes if the Codex ever goes down again.

    I am sorry if I stepped on any toes here – what I really intended to say is that it would be great if people added the content to the Codex in addition to wherever else they add it – it is a community resource.

    I understand that generating traffic to your site is important, and popularity never hurts, but I personally think it would be nice to help in growing a non-partisan, universal resource of information, which is where many of NuclearMoose’s, mine, and tens of other peoples’ time is going.

    Please do not be offended by this comment of mine – it is just a note. You are free to contribute in whatever way you think is best. This is just me thinking out loud, without intending to offend.

    I do not like this. At all.

    While we’re talking about various theme lists, Alex seems to have created the most advanced list yet. Alex King’s Theme Browser lets you browse through live previews of all of the themes entered in his contest and download the currently viewed theme.
